The
Senior Center is now enrolled in TD Bank’s Affinity Program. Go to
any TD office to enroll your account, or see Max to enroll. What a
great program! It’s TD’s way to give back to non-profits and their
members who bank with them!

According
to a recent Pew Research Center study, 11% of U.S. adults still
don't use the Internet. That's a significant change from 48% in
2000, but the study revealed that age remains a major factor, with
34% of senior citizens remaining offline. Nonetheless, seniors are
more connected than ever. Eighty-six percent of seniors were offline
in 2000, but easier-to-use apps and sites — particularly Facebook—
brought them online. Pew recently reported that 55% of Americans
over the age of 50 use Facebook. If you don’t use Facebook, why not
get started and see what you are missing?
NOTE: The center is closed when the Washington County Nutrition Program and the local schools are closed because of inclement weather. Listen to your local radio or television stations for school closings.
Reminder: ALL seniors are invited to participate in, and attend program and activity meetings, and fundraising meetings.
Everyone’s input is appreciated. Senior’s interested in joining a committee, be sure to see John “Max”.
